...where no missionary has been before."  Robert Moffat

BIKERussia, Petrozavodsk, Karelia, Russia 1997"I have always believed in the concept of missions as an adventure. How else could I find myself in a country that we considered an enemy only a few years before? Adventure? Try traveling with a 24 year old, a 73 year old and five people who barely speak any English...on bicycles. Dirt roads, sand roads, mud roads...no roads. Just trying to balance on a log while you push your bike through the mud. Nobody thought it would work. Nobody thought is was a good idea except me, Steve, and God. Funny thing about that, because it was God’s idea all along. I was just the guy up to my knees in mud in northwestern Russia, with a mountain bike and forty pounds of gear. It was the greatest adventure of my life." Hans Erdman - The Two Wheeled Explorer (Click HERE for the BIKERussia adventure.)


Just over 200 years ago, two men led a small party of soldiers, French-Canadian fur trappers, a slave and a young woman with a baby on the greatest epic adventure in the history of this country. The President sent them to explore the Missouri River from the Mississippi River at St. Louis, to it's source, and then to proceed on to the Pacific Ocean. They were to map the river and it's territory, and catalog the plants and animal life along it; to make contact with the native people of the region and to find, if possible, a northwest passage to the sea. Their names were Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. They are my inspiration and they are my heroes.
